CAYMAN 40 PLUS/COLOURS/CLASSIC

Congratulations on having chosen the CAYMAN 40

aquarium by Ferplast. CAYMAN 40 has been designed

to give you the greatest pleasure and to fully safeguard

the life and health of your fi sh and plants. Setting up

and running your CAYMAN 40 aquarium will be simple

and fun. A few minutes maintenance each month is all

that's needed to ensure the aquarium is always perfectly

effi cient. CAYMAN 40 is supplied with all the parts

and accessories needed for it to function at its best.

The aquarium and all parts have been fully tested and

comply with the relative international safety regulations.

Before carrying out any installation, please read the

following instructions carefully to ensure your safety

and prevent damage to the aquarium.

DISCOVER ALL ITS GREAT QUALITIES

Lighting: all the lights in CAYMAN aquariums have been

specially designed to produce the best conditions for

fi sh and plants. The electronic power supply, with water-

surface lights and refl ector dish, ensures the correct

lighting for the aquarium with maximum safety, ease of

use and maintenance. Compared to traditional lighting,

electronic lighting guarantees:

• Electricity savings in compliance with European

Directive 2000/55/EC on the use of power supplies for

low energy consumption fl uorescent lighting;

• Longer tube life

• More stable light: more similar to sunlight with none

of the typical fl ickering of traditional lighting

• Superior quality light: it remains constant almost to

the very end of the tube's life

• Lower temperatures: electronic lighting produces less

heat

• Safety: when the fl uorescent tube burns out, a

sophisticated electronic protection system cuts off the

power and renders the equipment completely safe

• Less weight: electronic lighting systems are much

lighter

Top cover: fi rmly hinged to the frame of the aquarium,

it has been tested to prevent humidity and splashes of

water escaping; it can be raised to 95°.

Light switch: for switching the light on and off .

Hatch: quick, handy access for feeding the fi sh without

having to open the top cover.

Cable housing: a space where all the electrical

components are connected. Only qualifi ed electricians

may have access to this.

Internal Filter: BLUCOMPACT internal fi lter.

INSTALLING THE CAYMAN 40: A FEW RULES, TOTAL

SAFETY

• Ensure that the voltage shown on the appliance

corresponds to that of your home electrical power

supply.

• The aquarium is intended only for indoor use.

• Before switching on make sure your home is protected

by an automatic safety breaker switch with an operating

current of no more than 30 mA.

• Do not connect the aquarium to the power supply

before correctly completing all the installation

procedures (including fi lling with water).

• Always disconnect the appliance from the electric

power supply before carrying out any maintenance.

• Remember that the protection of the lights from

water and dust is guaranteed only when the fl uorescent

tubes are correctly inserted and the ring nuts perfectly

tightened.

• The lights must never be submerged.

• The ventilation openings must never be obstructed,

covered or positioned near objects that could prevent

them functioning effi ciently.

• The power cable has Y-type wiring, so if damaged it

must be replaced by a qualifi ed electrician.

• All special maintenance work must be carried out by

a qualifi ed electrician. 'Special maintenance' means any

kind of work not included in the paragraph 'Maintaining

the CAYMAN 40 aquarium' and the internal fi lter manual.

'Qualifi ed electrician' means any qualifi ed member

of the register of installer.

• Take care never to pour or splash liquids onto the

cover because it contains electrical parts.

• Never remove the heater from the water when it is

connected to the electric power supply. Before removing

the heater, disconnect it and leave it to cool inside its

housing for at least 5 minutes.

• Ensure that the intake grilles on the internal

BLUCOMPACT fi lter are not blocked.

• Ensure that the internal BLUCOMPACT fi lter is always

submerged.

Positioning the aquarium:

• The aquarium should be placed on a solid fl at base

with a smooth even surface.

• Position the aquarium in a protected area not exposed

to direct sunlight (which could cause overheating and

a proliferation of algae), away from sources of heat (e.g.

heating radiators), cold air and drafts.

• Position the aquarium away from electrical equipment

that could be damaged by splashes of water.

• Connect the plugs to your electric power supply

leaving a loop in the cable below the electrical socket to

prevent drops of water running down the cable and into

the power supply (1).
